Database Changes: Athens access to Dialog Databases

There will be a change in the provision of the clinical databases (Medline, Embase, CINAHL, BNI, PsycInfo and AMED) which are currently accessed through your NHS Athens account.

It is anticipated that from May 2008 the search engine will change from the Dialog interface to a new one provided by NLH (National Library for Health). NLH is now providing a single interface to search all these databases .

This will still be acessed by using your NHS Athens account, however you will need to transfer any saved searches that you have created in the Dialog databases to the new NLH interface when it is up and running.


The library will be providing training in the use of the new interface and offering advice on the most appropriate resource to suit your needs.

Please contact the library for further advice and assistance.
